There was, but then Bruce Dern blew up the Geneva Convention headquarters by flying the Good Year Blimp into it--oh, wait, that's Black Sunday. . .
Nah, we just call them things and sometimes it sticks... they each have their own nickname, too, for instance, the littlest guy is "Nutter".
"Weasels" came from somewhere but I forget where.
I totally understand that from the plant loving part of me. Sometimes feed stores have the coolest unusual plants. Different ones from the normal nurseries around. My absolute favorites are the little old out of the way places.
"Well, luckily he had professorship at the University of Southern North Dakota at Hoople (U. of S.N.D. at H.) to fall back on. ;~D"
ROFL! He sounds like an ancestor of Weird Al Yankovich :)
I like that one! Reminds me of Nutter Butter cookies :)

Wind in the Willows, maybe? The sound also reminded me of the Weasleys--it gave me of an image of the Weasley brothers running around making mischief :)
I don't think there have been any ~relevant~ mini dramas!
We're about to go to the feed store for supplies, clean the barn, that kind of thing.... same ole same old.... Oh - except the part where a whole bunch of company is coming and I have to get ready for that. That's new. ;~D
I haven't seen "Roger Rabbit" yet.
BTW, just noticed "Blues Brothers" is on AMC tonight, followed by "Silver Streak" with Gene Wilder and Richard Pryor :)
"Nutter" is actually a family name. Our grandfather was doing research and turned up loads of "Nutters", not in the direct line, but great-great-great-uncles and such.

The dwarf's got a green thumb. Good work!
Love it.
Love it.
Love it.
Oh oh... hope the company doesn't break the dishes and crack the plates!
I would tell you that some of the company could be put to work to help you get some of that getting ready done.... but I think others are arriving too soon for that. :-D
As for me, I think I'm going to be so antsy for the next couple of days that I will probably be little use for anything. I do have to work tomorrow. But, that is just counseling with some students who want to enroll for fall. Little thinking on that.
Oh oh, I think the bride wants it to be a little cooler!
I have to say, that you all may laugh all you want - WN is packed for any eventuality! :-)

Sounds like interesting research. What ethnicity is the name?
Our family's been researching our genealogy for the past few years, too. So far we've gotten back to I think the 16th century on my Dad's side (Norwegian) and to the period of the English Civil War on my Mom's side (Irish), though in the latter case we have some gaps to fill in between the 17th and 19th centuries. Right now my Mom's helping research a 19th-century immigrants' house that's being restored for a local historical society that's making a sort of historical recreation museum depicting Wisconsin during that period.
LOL!
Didn't see that movie yet.
How horrible is that one?
As bad as Silent Running?
Uh... must be English, that's what we are. English on all sides with a tiny bit of German for flavor.
Yay, parents showed up so I get to see Riddick! Back with a report in a few hours.
